The flight began with a departure roll from runway 16 at Zürich Airport (LSZH). The CRJ700ER aircraft accelerated down the 2,363-meter runway, covering 73% of its length, before lifting off at a speed of 126 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 21°C and a wind speed of 13 knots from a direction of 60°, resulting in a crosswind of 13 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb overhead Opfikon, a town in the canton of Zurich, Switzerland. The climb started at an altitude of 1,881 feet above sea level and reached a height of 1,550 feet above sea level, an increase of 332 feet, in just 3 minutes. During this time, the aircraft covered a distance of 3 nautical miles.

The flight then encountered a go-around situation, where the aircraft was required to climb away from runway 10 at LSZH. This occurred at an altitude of 151 feet above ground level. Following the go-around, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 10 from the west, heading 95.0° at an altitude of 468 feet above ground level and a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway threshold.

The landing on runway 10 was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 112 knots and a distance of 394 meters. However, the touchdown rate was hard, at -461 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 10.1 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 19°C and a wind speed of 13 knots from a direction of 56°, resulting in a crosswind of 8 knots and a headwind of 10 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,260 meters, which was 51% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned, by 20.0 meters from the centerline. Despite these minor issues, the total flight distance was just 7 nautical miles, and the aircraft used only -1 kilogram of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 10 at LSZH Zürich Airport in the CRJ700ER

Landing Score 80.04 %

Landing Summary

The CRJ700ER aircraft successfully landed on runway 10 at LSZH Zürich Airport, but with some notable deviations from the ideal landing parameters. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the west, heading 95.0° at 1 nm and 468 ft above ground level (agl). The landing was conducted in a temperature of 19 °C, with a wind of 13 kt at 56°, resulting in a crosswind of 8 kt and a headwind of 10 kt.

The aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 112 kt, which was within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -461 fpm, indicating a relatively steep descent. The touchdown distance of 394 m was also within the acceptable range. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 10.1 m, which may have contributed to the hard touchdown rate.

The total landing distance of 1,260 m was 51% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned from the centreline by 20.0 m, which may have affected the aircraft's stability during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was successful, but with some notable deviations from the ideal parameters. The hard touchdown rate and misaligned runway touchdown position may have been caused by the slight misalignment of the aircraft from the centreline. The pilots should review the landing parameters and take corrective action to improve the landing performance in future flights.
